2021 Argiano Brunello di Montalcino, Tuscany Italy
A Happy Wine Calle Ocho Favorite — Rated 96 Points
Argiano is one of the oldest estates in Montalcino, with a villa and cellars dating back to 1580. Today it is one of the great revival stories of Tuscany, farming its hillside vineyards organically.
The 2021 Brunello is 100% Sangiovese from a vintage critics are calling a modern classic — elegant, fresh and built to age.

Tasting Notes
- Color: Deep garnet with ruby highlights.
- Aroma: Red cherry, raspberry, orange blossom and cedar, with hints of earth and tobacco.
- Palate: Medium to full-bodied, with dark cherry, iron and savory spice, firm and silky tannins and a long, polished finish. Drinks well now with a decant and will age for two decades.
